After three years of war, with depleting manpower and resources, and a series of stinging defeats, the fate of the Confederacy seemed certain.

The South had to gamble, and take costly risks...and Tennessee would take center stage in that effort. Desperate Days: Last Hope of the Confederacy tells the remarkable story of the battles of Franklin and Nashville through the words and experiences of men, women, and children who shaped the events of the Civil War in Tennessee, and often just tried to survive.
